Aww, that's cute, he thinks it's still 2002 and ”killing terrorists” is a thought terminating debate move instead of the empty rhetoric used to justify anything that everyone's been seeing through for 20 years.

I’ll even give him the obviously-untrue benefit of the doubt and assume for the sake of argument that by “terrorists” he means ISIS and not the heroes fighting against Nazi invasion. We’ll start there, because I assume Dean Philips and I can both agree that ISIS is bad.

I still support the death of a CEO in midtown more than killing members of ISIS. To be quite honest, ISIS doesn’t have that much impact on my life. This motherfucker is quite literally personally responsible for me not getting my anti-depression treatment.

I was supposed to do TMS last year but United threw a fit about covering it. I was also supposed to do a genetic screen to assess if certain medications would even work, and United wouldn’t cover that either.

Fuck that guy, he’s done far more evil than any member of ISIS, I hope hell is real so he’s burning there.

“Killing terrorists” cool phrasing you’ve got there buddy. Does that include the children in the pediatric hospital?

And yeah, conducting an indiscriminate bombing campaign, mass starvation, systemic sexual abuse and any other crime from list of inhuman barbarity against the entire civilian population of a region is totally the same as killing this one CEO who has blood on his hands with zero collateral.

[–] redtea@lemmygrad.ml 40 points 2 weeks ago

There upset because there wasn't any collateral.

seems like dummies in support of genocide in gaza also support private healthcare companies genociding poor americans through claim denials.

predictable.

No ISIS member ever denied me coverage (you do not gotta hand it to them)

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 26 points 2 weeks ago

And they probably wouldn't if they had the power to, unless you're American, at which point, yeah, they probably would

Damn you can smell the anti-arab racism

Philips was CEO of multiple companies himself.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dean_Phillips

Phillips has both owned and started several companies in addition to serving as president and CEO of his family's liquor business, the Phillips Distilling Company. He is the former co-owner of Talenti gelato and co-owns Penny's Coffee.

Oh, it’s this fucking loser, says a lot that I made a comment earlier this year making fun of him, but now I couldn’t even recognize the name.

You could have told me this was a tweet from some far right congressman in Louisiana and I’d believe you.

[–] qaopjlll@hexbear.net 22 points 1 week ago

Well yeah, I wouldn't expect a tweet from a far right politician from Louisiana to look that different than one from a far right politician from Minnesota

He should be more careful. Didn't he read that other book?

[–] Evilphd666@hexbear.net 25 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Better pick it up before it gets yanked as terrorist propaganda or something. But thanks for making the connection.

Why Insurance Companies Don't Pay Claims and What You Can Do About It.

An expose of insurance injustice and a plan for consumers and lawmakers to fight back. Now a Kindle version of the hard-hitting original. The denial of valid insurance claims is not occasional or accidental or the fault of a few bad employees. It's the result of an increasing and systematic focus on maximizing profits by major companies such as Allstate and State Farm. Citing dozens of stories of victims who were unfairly denied payment, the book explains how people can be more careful when shopping for policies and what to do when pursuing a disputed claim. It also lays out a plan for the legal reforms needed to prevent future

Now with a forward from joker-dancing

Ah yes, the bicycler's guide offing insurance CEOs

No "terrorist" has ever denied me healthcare.

[–] btbt@hexbear.net 22 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Nah, terrorists like Brian Thompson have definitely denied you healthcare mate

[–] qaopjlll@hexbear.net 18 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (3 children)

That's why he put quotes around "terrorist", he's not referring to actual terrorists he's referring to the ppl this ghoul is calling terrorists

EDIT: NVM I just saw the first comment was edited, I'm guessing that he probably edited it to add the quotes

I don't see no dead women, children or any bystander with this killing of this "innocent" CEO.

[–] Justice@lemmygrad.ml 41 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

democrats every other second of every day: ""Left" what is a "the left"? Well, anyway, it seems there are no good solutions here guys. Sorry! Just die!"

democrats when someone mocks a billionaire: "I have concluded that Adolf Hitler was correct. We have to purge these young people making ridiculous demands for healthcare and to end extreme wealth inequality!"

Has anyone seen high profile Republicans publicly mourning this douche? Aside from this asshole, I also saw recent vice presidential loser Tim Walz mourning the tragic loss to the "business community".

It's such a shame that the ultra reactionaries have the basic instinct to just shut the fuck up and say nothing when something like this happens and the "progressive" party doesn't.

[–] GoodGuyWithACat@hexbear.net 26 points 1 week ago

Tim Walz mourning the tragic loss to the "business community"

Tragic loss for the Democratic money laundering scheme.

because Palestinians are being killed because of their religion/ethnicity by a settler colonial state, not their class status. As BE said:

[–] ThermonuclearEgg@hexbear.net 22 points 2 weeks ago

It's worth following this with the counterpropaganda out there that just being a CEO isn't the reason people celebrate. It's because of the real and actual harm that being CEO of a large health ~~insurance~~ hedge fund entails.

Fine Dean Phillips, since you are a Democrat let’s compromise.

For every terrorist you kill in the Middle East, you also have to get one CEO in America.

[–] boiledfrog@hexbear.net 35 points 2 weeks ago

SCARY MIDDLE EAST OOOOOOOOEEEEEEH

i think killing terrorists hasn't been particularly effective

i think killing ceos is worth as long and high-budget of a try as was put into killing terrorists

[–] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 36 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

A guy on a bike killing a CEO with a handgun is far more cost effective than firing a missile from a drone to kill one enemy combatant, costing probably hundreds of thousands. I'm sure both the dead CEO and this ghoul Democrat would appreciate that.

oh ya the joke candidate guy that was on dipshit sirota's dumbass podcast talking about how the problem with democrats is the woke mind virus and not being soulless corporate automatons parroting state department lines and selling out the nearest available minority for 6 votes from the southern living demographic. i hate that i know any of that btw

Minnesota politicians have been absolutely insufferable. They're really showing their whole ass about who they care about: companies headquartered in Minnesota.
